Title: Intramesosigmoid hernia: preoperative diagnostic MDCT findings. Author: Liao YH, Lin CH, Hsieh WJ, Ho YJ, Lin WC. Journal: Abdom Imaging; 2012 Aug; 37(4):561-5. PubMed ID: 21947235. Abstract: Internal hernias, protrusion of abdominal viscera into an intraperitoneal fossa, are uncommon causes of bowel obstruction, and preoperative diagnoses are difficult. We report a rare case of a 47-year-old female with strangulated small bowel obstruction secondary to an intramesosigmoid hernia preoperative diagnosis by multi-detector row computed tomography. We highlight the preoperatively diagnosed value and findings of MDCT in intramesosigmoid hernia.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
